In the Black Sea, Russia deployed two warships and a submarine, all carrying cruise missiles.

That’s according to the head of the joint coordination press center of Operational Command South, Natalia Humeniuk, who spoke on the air of Espreso TV.

“The situation in the Black Sea remains tense because the Russian naval group has been strengthened by three missile carriers. Among them is the new missile ship, Tsyklon, which has not yet passed tests. According to preliminary data, the number of Kalibr missiles can be increased to 20 units. This means that two warships and a submarine – all missile carriers – are ready to engage targets across the territory of Ukraine,” Humeniuk noted.
